* Coolant protection checks should be made just prior to the onset of
freezing weather, where applicable. If coolant is dirty or rusty in
appearance, the system should be drained, flushed and refilled with the
prescribed solution of cooling system fluid and distilled water. Use only
permanent type coolant that meets specifications as listed in your
engine operator’s manual. See the engine manufacturer’s operating
guide for supplemental corrosion inhibitor specifications.
Periodic component/system checks
The following are vehicle checks that should be made periodically either
